GOV. GORDON TOLD OF THE ATROCITIES OF THE
THE GEORGIA PRISON CAMPS.
AT Atlanta, Ga, yesterday, the examination OF
the leSseeS or the convictS was resumed before
Gov. Gordon. The first part OF the morning was
taken up In controversy between counsel as to
the scope OF investigation. 1t was finally decided
that the investigation should be governed in the
main by the usual court rules. The two convicts
VIM: Slaughter and Hardy Mobiey, who were so
cruelty beaten at Bingham's Camp for giving in
formation TO the penitentiaTy authorities were
present. Slaughter was first called. He said he
was whipped Tor having a difficulty with other
legs. He was kept at work, and several days
later, when the penitentiary authorities visited
the camp, his sores had healed. Slaughter is
serving twelve years sentence for attempt to
assault white girl. MObey, the other convict
swore that Bingham had frequently whipped him
pal ply ocian OF the penitentary, testified TO hav-
Ing examined these men few days after they had
been whipped. Blood vessels an inch and q quar-
ter deep In the tissues had been cut Into by the
lash, and the punishment OF the men had been
terribly savage. AS to the other branch or the
some OF which we're those suppressed by Governor
MCDANIEL and Which presented in striking terms
the fearfully cruel treatment OF the conVicts by
the lessee employing them in the labor camps.
AT the afternoon session Dr. uOuck, physician at
one OF the camps testified that at Old Town camp
OF which I. j. James was lessee, James had been
paid go per month by lion. Geo. jackson, the
Augusta manufacturer, who was sentenced TO
seven years Imprisonment, in consideration of
being exempted from work. Another convict

THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.

The board OF trustees OF the new Catholic Uni
versity having selected this city as the place for
its establishment have now under Amusement, or
rather the building committee has the plan of
choosing another place for the erection of the
essary buildings instead OF using the old Middle.
ton place, which was purchased some time ago
for that purpose. The Middleton place is beyond
Glenwood Cemetery, near the intersection OF the
Brentwood road with the road that passes the
cemetery. 1t is not far from station on the Met
ropolitan Branch of the Baltimore and Ohio and
Is probably some three four miles from the heart
Of the city. A number Of those interested are of
the opinion that this site Is too far from the city
and would be tncOnveDient for the clergy and
others who might wish to attend the lectures and
other exercises of the university. closer proX-
Unity to the city Is considered advisable, and the
committee will endeayOr to secure a more central
university. II they succeed IN this search there Is
no doubt but that the location OF the university
will be changed.
